It’s National Nurses Month and Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation™ (HNHN) is proud to participate in the first week of this event, which focuses on self-care. HNHN is a nurse wellness program that is free and open to all. We seek to improve the health of the nation, one nurse at a time! Nurse self-care is vital as we still face the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and its accompanying stress, isolation, and anxiety. Each day we will send you a hope-filled message with a #healthynurse story, wellness blog, and helpful tips to improve your quality of life, nutrition, physical activity, safety, and rest. For even more wellness tips, challenges, contests, resources and more, join HNHN today!
